Borderline always bothered me. I've known plenty of bright, conflicted young women whose (usually male) psychiatrists tell them they have "borderline," when really they're just smart, possibly smarter than their shrinks. I think 70%+ of the BPD patients are female, so its really like a modern day "hysteria" couched in clinical-sounding jargon. At the same time, you can't deny that some people with the diagnosis do have real problems. But couldn't it just be a "soft" bipolar? Or an expression of feminine angst in the modern world?
